Random Thoughts For Friday, Dec. 1st And A MEME.

Yeah, so I’m feeling pretty random today. Maybe it’s because the yellow Wiggle is leaving the band because of some rare disease (I hope it’s wasn't because of Dorothy), or maybe because Christmas is a few weeks away.Randomness on my mind:

I have no idea what this one guy at work does! For the last year I’ve been sitting about 30 feet away from this one guy who nobody knows. He shows up everyday and sits at his computer, never leaves, even for lunch it seems. Every time I walk by, he just kind of stares at me. I’ve even tried talking to him once or twice and he kind of brushes me off. Has anybody seen “Office Space”? I want to put a red stapler on his desk.

What’s that guy planning on doing with that cigar? I have a junk e-mail account that I use to sign up for newsletters or special offers. My wife and I stayed at Luxor – Las Vegas a few years ago and they continue to send me offers with some pretty weird pictures on them. The one I got today was the strangest - it has a caption of “Kiss a stranger.... It’s a long way to midnight and it’s up to you to make every second count” and the guy is showing the camera a cigar he’s hiding in his coat while a woman undresses.

Women talk 3 times more than men!? And then there's me - I talk 3 times more than those women (so my wife tells me.) Did anybody see this study?

Funny, when I looked at the ad, I assumed they we just going out, so the woman is zipping UP her dress and the man is putting the cigar away, to be smoked later (perhaps after a big meal or a big win at the the craps table).

Of course, the idea of them just getting in is funnier.

Funnier still is the caption "WWCD? - What Would Clinton Do? Remember, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas."

My husband almost never talks. I think it's because his mom never stops talking so it became part of his personality. I have a friend who's husband never stops talking and she says I have the better deal.

GAH! This is what I get for being bored LOL. I did my thing and MEME's on my site, linked back to you too (frequently actually - you are a read I swear by). Great post today (except for the flippin' MEME dude) LOL.

My husband talks more than I do at home. I talk all day for work - or so it seems - and talk constantly with the children. Poor man feels he has to make up the silence when it gets to be his turn. I try to make it companionable, but I think I usually just come off as frosty...

And dude? The cream cheese won't work on the moon - not enough gravity.

My husband had a colleague like this. The guy stayed at a consulting job for about a year, at the rate of upwards of $200.00 an hour billed to the client company. It took the client company a year to find out. Nobody seemed to know what the guy did.

My husband is really chatty. He was yakking at me while I was trying to read your post, as a matter of fact. Sometimes when he travels for business I just hold the phone away from my ear and let him yammer on. and on. and on.
